Abstract

This letter adds a little to the information contained in the preceding one, as to the career of Liberius, father of Venantius. Liberius was a faithful servant of Odovacar, who adhered to his master to the last. He awaited incorruptly the Divine judgments, nor did he allow himself to seek a new King till he had first lost his old one. On the overthrow of his lord he was bowed by no terror; he bore unmoved the ruin of his Prince; nor did the revolution, at which even the proud hearts of the Barbarians trembled, avail to move him from his calm.
